introduction

The association award a ‘certificate of training achievement’ to those attending the course providing:

1. The trainees pass a test at the end of the course
2. The training provider meets all the rules laid down by the Association for running the courses
3. The qualifications of the instructors must show they are competent to carry out the work

The courses are based entirely on the Associations ‘code of practice for the use of high pressure water jetting equipment’. It is a practical course containing hands on training with the equipment together with some lecture room subjects. The course is designed to give the trainee knowledge of a safe way in which to use the equipment. It gives information on safe entry into confined spaces but makes no attempt to provide full instruction on the safety procedures involved. It is assumed that trainees would have already been trained in the procedures if their future duties require them.
